[Review] NATRAHEA

It should be around 3 years ago,  I remember till date that I was tearing while I stood rooted beside Vera's pram, right at the traffic light junction opposite to my block. The pain was intense and I was limping badly even the support of the pram. I called for my sister's help to babysit the kids and went to straight to a chiropractor. You read it right, not General Practitioners as they would probably prescribe me with some pain-killers which I am allergic to and ask me to monitor the pain, if it worsens, then do go for an x-ray. 

At the Chiropractor, I was diagnosed with a hip bone inflammation, went for intensive treatment thrice a week for a month and I recovered with no medicine, purely by adjustments and doing stretches at home.

At the beginning of 2020, I started to have nagging aches on my lower spine and neck aches. I was not sure if it was due to the fact that I am always crafting on the floor and the hard fall onto the sea bed during the waves surfing attempt in Bali last year. The bad posture and fall actually contributed to aches and pain and a tingling numbness on my thigh. 

There was a week, I was bedridden due to intense pain on my lower back. The feeling was scary as I could only move my body with my arms, it was that bad. I could not even bend forward to pick things up nor to change my shorts. 

To add on, another problematic area was my neck that was aching badly with possible cause attributed by poor posture from using the laptop and mobile phone (try and think if you have been looking down on your mobile phone most of the time).

Then, I was recommended to NATRAHEA, a premier one-stop natural healing centre that provides Chiropractic, TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) and Functional Wellness as a one-stop solution. With these 3 services under one roof, it definitely saves a lot of time from travelling from one place to another. Although worlds apart, these three treatments complete the Circle of Healing. 

 Dr. Jason 

First, I went for an x-ray just to make sure that there was no hairline crack from the fall. Luckily, there was no sign of any. My x-ray scans were explained to me and what caused the pain. 



However, it showed that the disc space on my lower back at L4 and L5 was pretty narrow and that could be the culprit that caused the pain and numbness on my right thigh. 

Blue line is the healthy curve, red was my alignment.

My pelvic bone needed to be pushed down to create more space so as to lessen the pain. You can go Xavvylicious Instagram highlights under Natrahea and clips on how Dr. Jason did the adjustment for me. As he proceeded with the adjustment, I could feel 'clicks' along the spine. The feeling was indeed a relief!


I like that chiropractic adjustment are non-invasive, safe and it helps to alleviate pain and aid in recovery. 



Apart from chiropractic treatment, I also did spinal decompression to release the pressure felt on my nerves as the decompression machine gently stretched and retracted my spine. I took the chance to catch some winks while the machine did its job. You could barely see the movement but it was some really gentle pulls. 



There were also moments I would feel unbalanced and I knew that one of my legs was shorter than the other due to the stress I added on it from the pain. At times, we tend to stand in a way such that we made ourselves 'comfortable' to accommodate the pain but in the wrong posture. I was indeed having a leg shorter than the other because it could be easily seen when Dr Jason did the check. Usually, after the spinal adjustment, I could feel my 'balance' again.


 If you have been getting frequent headaches, give your neck a check. It could be due to the posture accumulated from looking down at the mobile phone as well as when we are using the laptop. Ideally, these two gadgets should be at our eye level to maintain a good posture.

 

Using the adjustment method as well, the aches behind the neck disappeared instantly! Just relax and trust that you are in good hands of the doctor. 



With TCM service under the same roof, patients can also seek consultation and have acupuncture treatment done on the area you are experiencing soreness. I did my check on my first visit and was told that my heartbeat was slightly faster than the norm and blood pressure was on the lower side. I took the chance to tune my body which lacked the qi as I always have the felt like I had been hit by the fatigue bug. After a course of herbal powder, my blood pressure improved, I felt more energetic and my heartbeat was back to normal by the second visit.

Accupuncture


Under Functional Wellness, they do provide Muscle Therapy too! Deep muscle massage to loosen the tight knots. It was pretty comfortable though certain trigger points were really an 'OUCH' moment when pressed on, especially the shoulder blades and certain part of the neck. All these are caused by the accumulation and stress due to poor posture or old injury. 

From the massage, the therapist could tell that my back muscles were unbalanced, it seemed like I had used one side more than the other. I loved this treatment with all the massage pads stuck onto my back as it emitted gentle pulses to massage the sore parts before the therapist conducts a deep muscle rub. SHIOK max! I guarantee that you will have a better sleep in the night when the circulation in the body is so much better. 


Muscle therapy would usually end with stretches. This is so important! I do feel the difference if I stretch on a daily basis and on lazy days, the aches returned. 


After a month of intensive treatments at Natrahea, my nagging lower back pain was gone and the aches had lessened. If you do believe in natural healing, keeping a well balanced 'Qi' in your body as well as getting your muscular and skeletal elements in the ideal condition to make a healthy and energetic you, do give NATRAHEA a try! There are a total of 7 outlets islandwide, I am so glad to know that there is one outlet near me in the Northeast - Heartland Mall (Kovan).
